Oh yeah! Blogging!
I really will try to get back to at least once a week from now on. Cross my heart. ;)
The year has certainly got off to a golloping start. Here we are in
The kids are safely back to school - OMG - they are all in the one place for a whole year. They all seem pretty happy with their teachers, and have friends either in their class or right next door.
We will be getting to know the teachers over the next few weeks as the parent/teacher meetings come around, though I must say that year 7 seems pretty full on - our meeting is tomorrow night! I wonder if it's a sign of things to come?
Work has been extremely busy (which is good when you run a small business) - the hangover from the GFC seems to be receding. Thank heavens. We might have had to get real jobs! Working for other peoople! Eeeek!
At least I have accomplished a few things since my last post. I finally chose my word. It was quite a process of consideration and elimination! I tested a few out for a day or so, but finally settled on
This year I will have the courage of my convictions.
I will try to do and think what is right for me, not what is simply expected or the current wisdom.
I hope to make it clear that my feelings are important, my opinion is worthwhile and to insist that there is room/time for the things I need in my life.
I hope to have the courage to, on occasion, put myself first.
We'll see how that goes...
More about how else I have been getting organised next time. It's a very cute project. (Promise!)
